His home, the quaint town of Gråsten, Denmark, has found itself in global headlines thanks to Bogart’s unique charm.
Like most of us during the Covid lockdown, Bogart had his ruff time too. He missed roaming freely and the usual bustle of life. To counter his boredom and keep his curiosity at bay without risking him going over the fence, his owners came up with a creative idea.
“Living near a walking path means we see many people passing by each day, and the dogs are always just so curious. We created the holes in the fence to keep them contained, but seeing them peeping through was amusing. I thought it would be even funnier if we painted something around it on the other side,” explains Bogart’s mom, Ranveig Bjørklid Levinsen.
Bogart’s new window to the world was an instant hit. The lockdown pup was thrilled to be able to once again observe the outside world he very much missed. Alongside his mom, Winston, Bogart frequents his lookout spots throughout the day.
The ordinary hole in the fence quickly evolved into a comical spectacle, with paintings of a jesting face around it, just like the carnival stand-in photos. Soon after that, another hole followed, featuring a royal design, complete with a crown and a red robe, becoming Bogart’s favored spot.
